Land iguanas populate Fernandina, the youngest island composed from the black lava of one large volcano. The seas are rich due to the upwellings and allow
wildlife to thrive such as the flightless cormorants, large marine iguanas, penguins and crabs. Predators can often be seen hunting too, including snakes, hawks and great blue herons.
The only visitor site in Fernandina
This meandering coastal walk is a top visit in Galapagós due to the active sealions and mountains of marine iguanas that cover the extensive tide pools and lava. Next to the path, cormorants breed and penguins can be viewed on the rocks.
